This could be an IRQ problem. I'd suggest trying an IRQ other than 2. IRQ 2 has some special meaning (it is the cascade interrupt), and it may not be playing well with your modem. Look through your BIOS to see if you can assign that card/PCI slot a specific IRQ (preferably one that is not used by anything else), or try switching PCI slots. If you aren't using your serial ports, try to disable them and assign one of the IRQs (3 or 4) to your modem. -Matthew Bertrand > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd- > questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Alex Teslik > Sent: Sunday, February 08, 2004 2:39 AM > To: Jeff Gardner > Cc: list-freebsd-questions > Subject: Re: struggling with hylafax installation > > ---------- Original Message ----------- > From: Jeff Gardner <freebsd@newgalaxy.net> > To: Alex Teslik <alex@acatysmoof.com> > Cc: list-freebsd-questions <freebsd-questions@freebsd.org> > Sent: Sun, 08 Feb 2004 01:00:37 -0500 > Subject: Re: struggling with hylafax installation > > > Alex Teslik wrote: > > > Oy, the second post to questions in the same day :( > > > > > > So, I bought new modem and got it "working", but only kind of - the > modem is > > > not echoing commands back to the 'cu' or 'ppp' terminals.
